The idea of Elrond and Elros was one of my favourites, especially when I got into the fandom in '04. I think there is still a bit of fondness for them, even now, but there's a lot of other factors as well.

The factor about Elrond that facinates me more these days is how he felt about the actions of his parents and ancestors. I did read a fic, possibly on AO3, where Elrond and Elros meet up and decide who will take which ancestral sword, and Elrond did not want Elwing's sword because he still felt bitter about how she basically abandoned the pair of them. This was set very early in the Second Age, and he would not get solid information about them being alive in Valinor until the Istari and Glorfindel came to Middle Earth at the start of the Third Age.

That's what I wish to read more of, how do the twins feel about their parents? Do they have mixed feelings about the Second Sack of Doriath, the loss of Eluréd and Elurín or do they understand how much Maedhros was upset about that and was trying to make up for it a little by taking them into his care? How do they feel about Beren and Lúthien? What do they think about Thingol and how he kept the Silmaril? How Dior kept it leading into the Second Sack?

I know my writing, I also know how likely I am to get a fanfic finished. I want to see other people write it because I want to see how they think it through differently to me (my writing would also be heavily influenced by RP ideas, while other writers would write more canon-compliant).
